ilaxi patel speaking at CIIE-IIMA Presentation on ‘Youth & Government – Paving a new path for India’ (14 th May 2011)

POLITICS & DEMOCRACY
Robbie Williams said: “Poli” is a Latin word meaning “many”; and "tics" meaning “bloodsucking creatures....”
But I would say, “Poli” is a Latin word meaning ‘masses’ and “tics” that trigger youth to be proactive!
Democratic Government : People’s Government – For the People, By the People, Of the People.

THE GOVERNMENT Feeling the Pulse of the Youth`
What The Youth Values:
Empowerment
Information
Communication & sharing Ideas
Relationships & Influence
Diversity
And most importantly…Technology & Development

INDEPTH FINDINGS
The youth do not have enough information about the Government /institutions.
The youth expect hand outs from government instead of a hands up.
Government governs through theory and not through practical aid.
It is up to the youth to come up with initiatives for the future.
Only a few people have actually attempted to talk to government.
When they do, the youth will take their issues to their contacts/influences/media/shelve off!
Time to shrug off ‘Who Cares’ – Attitude that matters to Change for a Change.

Youth Statistics
National Election stat of electorates is largest – 700 million!
200 Million Votes fall in 18-25 yrs category
Big Talk – Products, Books & mags, Youth development, Youth Leadership, etc
Large numbers engaged in Welfare & welfare related activities
Youth who are either studying, working or in Business
Majority of Youth looking for Avenues: Work, training, part of some major economic activity, definitely part of a very strong social group.
A National Youth Policy was framed in the Seventh Plan and a
plan of action formulated in 1992. The National Youth Policy seeks
to provide the youth with new opportunities to participate in
nation building .
